Maybe make it so that it deals 2 points right off, and the target loses another 2 points per hour/day until he dies or it's reversed - that follows the spirit of the original quivering palm, but makes it more applicable to this style.Yeah... I want to keep the Aspect of Wind, though - it's just too cool, and it really fits the style. I'll maybe drop the concealment part though.Ah. Are you suggesting dropping the compass points? I want to keep those - they're good for adding a little boost to the style's strong point, or shoring up a weakness.Pure destructive power makes more sense, so I dropped the burst thing.  Makes sense. All monks get an AC bonus - it's awareness of self, which was supposed to be listed at 1st level. The description is in there, though; they gain a +3 dodge bonus, +1/3 levels. Mountain Style would swap half their AC bonus for DR /-; Sun Style would suffer a -2 penalty (as they're more focused on offense); Sea and Heavens Styles remain unchanged; and Wind Style gains a +2 bonus.3 + stat bonus is pretty hefty. That's what I'm moving most of the abilities toward, for consistency's sake.I'm fixing those - they'll be +1/rank.I edited the first post to take (most of) your suggestions into account, along with some other ideas I had. There are still a few things to fix - this isn't close to the final version yet. I think what I'll do is put the elemental channeling stuff as a monk/sorcerer PrC - you can further tap into the power of your style, then you can get the supernatural abilities and aspects and such. I altered the sorcerer class (there might still be a thread on it here somewhere) to give them a more innate grasp of magic - they can tap directly into the source, etc.I also found Avatar online, and I watched the first season on nick.com. Despite being written for kids, that show is awesome - it's got great writing, and the fighting styles are very evocative.</blockquote>
